Nobody cares about when anyone was born, enjoy the song.
This gives me nostalgia for something that never happened to me
Holyyy shit I can belive that bro. I fucking thought the same thing and I just sent some girl here to check the song out and tell me if its the same for her. And u r the top comment
Shame. Euro ‘96, Oasis, N64. Man, I was only nine in 1996, but what a year.
Exactly
There’s a word for it: anemoia
1996 south side of Omaha Nebraska this shit really happen to me
2011 - 1996 is a 15 year difference
If they made a song like this in 2020 we would be reminiscing about the year 2005
Myspace, Emos and cans of monster
Good name for a song
literally Trisha Paytas' band, which is even named Sadboys 2005 lmfao

I think there's something specifically 1990s about this song that makes it impossible to transpose effectively. As much as anything else, it's about the insulating psychological effects of a specific kind of First World privilege that (imo thankfully) died with 9/11. The whole thing is a brutal, bitter deconstruction of '90s nostalgia and what (and WHO!) it conveniently leaves out, from "though war was breaking out all around me, my concerns were with prank calls" to a teen party full of blatant, oblivious wasting of vital resources (using water as a visible stand in).
To be fair, we're all doing that anyway.
don't you hate it when you throw a party and everyone pours water into your pool
+Dylan O'kelly lol
Oh, god yes that happens all the time.
Well what I pour in was once water does that count
I know right
Imagine having a pool-
Bring back 1996 😢
Married for 10 years, sadly lost Trish in 2004 due to a sudden heart condition.
My Wife was only 31years young 💝

@@arcanis17 Thanks so much my friend.
Sorry bro.
@@guro5615 Thanks so much for caring my friend.
That is really sad :(
Does anyone else remember Dolly the sheep?
TehChocco foot n mouth n that
I live where Dolly was cloned :D
Dolly was the first full mammal to be a successfully cloned and live to adulthood
I love that reference.
Yeah that shi was wild
I am not sure if anybody else has noticed, but their is a severe overtone of water in this video
Nice spot!
No such thing, needs more water.
idk what vid you were watching
I saw like the water bottles but that was it. They were wearing hazmat suits I thought....
#TeamWombat
me: man I miss 1996

1. I am very jealous of you.
2. You have great taste.
Shut up fool
I was also"LMFAO"born in 1997
LOL
this band is everything I've ever needed in my life
sAME
I couldn't agree more. I take the wombats everywhere I go.
Fuck you, you selfish wee fool you have a family who you don't appreciate. your life is all you need and every needed life is so easy it's just a game people take too seriously well not me. I am a self made millionaire and what I realized in life is it's just a piss take, so piss take it back take chances investing in property buy a shop take chances and if you really don't give a fuck what lies ahead. anything is possible fuck face and think what you want of my speech because As I said I am the self made millionaire 10times over. Ilost it all 2 years ago just for a laugh and show people how easy it is to be a millionaire and make it in life if you don't give a piss what people think of you and your self believe is second to none forget the rest once again self made millionaire you little fool so fuck off make some money and then you can get it right up every doubtful person who doubted you sort it out make life easier for yourself by not giving a fuck what people think about you, and remember you are a waste of space and if you can't make money in life then ill make money on you by recycling your face with a hammer freak show. say something cheeky about me and I will go through your door and punch your mums head in don't mess around sort it out freak show
@@jameayboy1780 what
Learned this after listening turn
stay hydrated, kids
It finally dawned on me how the wetsuits are measure of how drunk they are, and just the goggles is only a little tipsy. Some of these people are straight up snorkling
No water was wasted in the making of this video.
Liar
it is a pool so yeah, no water was wasted lol
@@OceanicMaestro I can't tell if you are adding to the joke or being serious
Graduated in 96. At the time shit was changing. Grunge was cool but I was never a fan. Loved led zep and bands like that. This vid kind of describes the feeling of the 90s. Or it might be that I'm drunk.
That guitar distortion though. Seriously it might be one of my favorite guitar sounds I have ever heard.
Lol have u heard the song 1979 made by the smashing pumpkins which came out in 1996?!
+Akhila Ramesh omg yes!
It came out in 1995.
Andrew ok whatever lol.
Andrew the single released january 23 1996
+Akhila Ramesh The album the song was on was released in 1995.
Born 1996 and I've fucked up my life immensely from drug habits, toxic relationships, endless partying and finally left feeling empty. Make your choices wisely kids, my chaotic life began at 10. Make better decisions than me 🙏
I haven't learnt my lesson 🙃
@@MarleyGHaHakeep working at it brother, it’s never too late
Still listening in 2024!
I was fifteen in 1996... which makes this one incredibly relatable. Life was far more simple, at the beginning of the mass internet age.
It was also a time where simple things could be enjoyed, and things weren't so complicated.
There's little here to miss!!!
Bring back 1996!!!
Their style is particular, it goes across some deep electronic influences but it never gets far from the rock spark and I think the rock side mainly affects and leads their choices! They recently caught up with a new album and it looks superb, magically embraced by alternative hints and some lovely chorus as in the usual preferences of the band! The sound can be quirky at times, it makes you imagine the space, a love lost or even the relief of being close to the ones you love! These are the right emotions the album grants me, listening to the alternative artists always help you overcome the pointless commercial tunes! If you get over the boundaries you wipe out so many bands because you understand they were not as deserving as they seemed! The Wombats never let you down, they have a groundbreaking sound; only three guys providing the sound of an orchestra! It'd be needed to play along with ten members if you thought to be that impressive! They break the mould and scare teenagers off! They write for lighting up the keenest fans, basically to spice up our souls! I'm addicted to this all and I'm not ashamed of showing up with such a powerful mark! Let's carve it into your heart! Promise yourself that you'll never betray the alternative rock scene! If you agree with all of that don't shirk clicking thumbs up!
fretui medak I think they take on a new style each album but I totally agree
What do you mean by, "they scare teenagers off!"? Because I'm a teenager and I've known about them for about a year and a half and love their music...?
Ok well......... um I skipped half of it
It's entirely teenage music, loved them when I was 14-17, still like them but can't relate anymore.
You have encapsulated perfectly. Well articulated and expressed. I have always love 3 piece bands. The Police, Muse... I could go on,
LYRICS:
I had no cares in the 1990's
I knew of no downfalls
The war was breaking out all around me
My concerns were with prank calls
She kissed me on the cheek
She kissed me on the cheek
Right in front of the older kids
When my self-belief, my self belief
Wasn't scarred by the modern itch
'cause now it feels like
We kissed with one eye on our TV set
And the more I give, the less I get
Using fairground rides just to spark her smile
This little hit to miss, bring back 1996, bring back 1996
So hard to beat those teenage kicks, bring back 1996
We were cloning sheep in the 1990's
We were building telescopes
And sugar filled the whole of my body
As I edged it all to grow
I kissed her on the cheek
I kissed her on the cheek
Just to impress the older kids
But my self-belief, my self-belief
Wasn't lost in the modern glitch
'cause now it feels like
We kissed with one eye on our TV set
And the more I give, the less I get
Using fairground rides just to spark her smile
This little hit to miss, bring back 1996, bring back 1996
Stop talking, stop talking
I need a lover not a friend tonight
I'm leaving, I'm leaving
I'm not cut out for the modern life
I'll never beat those teenage kicks
I'll never beat those teenage kicks
I'll never beat those teenage kicks
Bring back 1996
those lyrcis are just wrong though
*urged it onto grow
*little here to miss
*spark a smile
Who’s here in 2022🤪😘
Lol this song came out when I was 9. I'm turning 15 in less than a month and i cant help but have the daunting feeling I'll be here every year, then looking back at 24 thinking fuck, where did it all go? Responsibilities, bollocks.
Am I the only one who thinks all the bottled water might be an homage to the fact that the bottled water industry boomed in the mid-90s?
Need
Its for the rave they're throwing, 1996 was peak MDMA days
definitely not lol
The 90s were an amazing time to be a teenager.
You kids realize this song is about being a teenager in the 90's and not being born in 1996, right ? ...
Guillaume Schmitz more like a kid, listen to the lyrics. It's primary school. Not to mention their ages.
Guillaume Schmitz I was 15 in 96...it was great. So stop talkin'; I want to beat those teenage kicks...
I was born in 96 :]
+1sweetpeach i was 14 in the 1996..
+Guillaume ‘DrowTV’ Schmitz mate what does it matter? I'm 20 now so i was born in 1995 does that matter? if i like this kind of music and this song i have the wright to. guys don't let anyone tell you that you are to young for any kind of music if you love it listen to it!! ( sorry for my english if it's not perfect I'm from holland:) )
I can't believe I still remember this song! this is one of my favorite songs from the wombats!
+anida saengxayabandith i like it cuz its the year i was born
You are saying this is too much water, but I'm positive that half of these comments wouldn't care about it if it was alcohol. Maybe this was a replacement of alcohol. Please just shut up about the water.
They drinking all water. Was is this, a mdma-party?
it's coz he was a kid in 1996
Yeah true, and whats the most favorite drink of every kid? Thats right, water... ;)
MAD could be crappy, still lemonade xD
Molly water?
*What
Still listening this masterpiece
Shout out to all the 1996 turning twenty in 2016... ✌ ❤
This song isn't about being born in 1996...
+Riley Herbert i know. :)
+Riley Herbert '96 is still the shit
i was worried about turning 20 soon but you just made me feel special hahaha
Victor Ramos aww that's cute... i'm glad for that. :))
ah yes i remember the year 1996
i wasn't born
Literally just discovered them and I'm obsessed! There voice is so unique and different! And the song are just amazing!
LOVED this song when I was 15, listened to it all the time 💖
8 years later I'm listening to it again to escape the feelings in the lyrics x'(
(Yes if you do the math I wasn't alive in 1996 xp)
Honestly, as somebody around your age, I used to think this way a lot. Then I got diagnosed with autism, cut a lot of needless energy draining habits out of my life, stopped trying to shame myself into conformity, and suddenly found myself happier than I remembered being since I was 7 years old. Whenever your personal "1996" was, you enjoyed that time because you appreciated it in the moment, you weren't overextended, and your life was full of things that met your needs and made you happy. That can always happen again. :)
Incredible song, one that makes me wanna walk in slow motion.
when 3:10 hits and u feel so fucking epic
so true
Yes, it sounds as flawless as you'd never imagine! Sincerely this song is supposed to take you much longer time if you want to be caught by its tremendous rhythm, it's phenomenal and irreplaceable! These guys rock, they coherently lead the alternative scene.
Daywalker777r
bad timing...
Leviosy what do you mean bad timing :(
im not into the wombats, but i have to play this on my birthday..
its my 18th today!
Cuz Now it feels like we kiss with one eye on our mobile phone And the more I give the less I get. Needing instagram likes just to spark a smile. Loving them little dopamine hits bring back 2000 and 6
Our modern glitch
all these feels
I like this song man I miss being a teenager in the 90's
This Song is still so good love pop indie
Still listen to in 2016.
Nicholas CHRYSSAFIS Why must you breed the negativity? You really should think about what you say to others. You never know what that little negative thing can do to a person.
Nicholas CHRYSSAFIS I hope someone shows you the love you deserve.
amazing song from amazing band
still listen in 2017
Still listen to in 2020 :))
I still think mid twenties -to early thirties is the golden age of life (pre-internet). Old enough to command respect (cause you're a threat), young enough to remember the flavor of what it was like to not care. Dangerous :D
Yeh we are literally a once ever generation, we saw both sides of this :)
29 year old raises his glass to that.
I'm kind of sad that I'm probably one of the few people on here that was actually cognizant, as in older than two in 1996. It makes me nostalgic of that time in my life, I was 11 in 1996. My mom was still independent, healthy, and not wheelchair bound. This song sings volumes to me.
My husband was 11 in 1996. And I was born that year. Sorry about your mama
Where all my '96 babies at??
I give them permission to bring back 1996. It'll give me a chance to actually get it right this time ;) sounds like a preeettttyyy good deal to me. #1996baby Go for it wombats.
question -why all the water?
Kate Marr they're drowning themselves with all the water, it's a metaphor :D
Rhiannon Warren Drowning the babies born in 1996? That is messed up.

No wonder there was a bloody hosepipe ban...
Do love this song though, cracking band.
I know this song isn't about being born in 1996 but i was born in that year and I'm having a crisis because I'm feeling old for turning 20 in a few months and yeah shout out to everyone who's in this situation... anyways i love this song and this band
suck it up princess. wait until you're 30 something.
Dude we're going on 23 now. Crazy huh? Also, is your name a reference to Gerard Way? If so, that's awesome
Ohh 1996. That year was such a blur... since I was born that year
My wombats' favourite song
Greek Tragedy is very good. But 1996 is not bad :)
I love 1996 it was a great year
The Wombats are such an awesome band
for someone born in 1996 i maybe sing along to this too enthusiastically....
is it weird I miss being a teenager and I'm 20?
I got them feels, in the exact same boat
Nope. Turning 20 in a couple months and I have the same feelings.
If you miss being a teenager it could be the perfect moment to listen to "The Suburbs" by Arcade Fire
FSAyfkm that I shall do, thanks for the suggestion :)
it only gets worse :p
the best years (or freest/funnest) are over friend ;) responsibility is now your new best friend.. yay!
when older people told ya that when you were a teenager, it was true.. ;)
96 was a great year and everyone was feeling good in London, not anymore though!
Elliott Defoe brexit
Favorite song from The Wombats!
I WAS BORN IN 1995!!!, COME AT ME YOU FOOLS
Seriously take me back to 1996.
Kissing with one eye on the tv. Giving everything and getting nothing. No thanks.
3+ months ago I fell in love with this band watching this video. Back then I never would've thought I'd 1. Love them as much as I do. Their music is amazing and 2. Meet them and have the chance to talk to them. If there's any band that deserves support and recognition, it's them. I can't ever repay them for having them making me feel so great at Bumbershoot--so I'll just say it everywhere and anywhere: they are incredibly talented guys, write relatable songs, and they are incredible to their fa
Who’s here in 2020 still boppin 🤘🏻
👀
This song was made 9 years ago. That means, at the time that they made the song, they were as close to their teenage years as I am to my teen years now. Damn.
Old enough to remember 1996, and dolly the sheep being cloned. Much nostalgia 🤣🤦🏻♀️
Bring back the year I was born
omfg sameeee
Which month? My birthday is 3/15/96
8/31/1996 here!
90s kids anthem
Shut up
this song is reverse optimism with optimistic intent. its not pessimistic. its momentary reflection and awe in a realization and probably disappointment in the fact that it occurred afterwards rather than within the moment being reflected.
Guess I’m literally the only person in this entire pandemic listening to the Wombats lol
9 years old and loving school holidays!!! 1996 was fun #imisskisschase
if they don't play this at reading festival this year i may cry
+ArseWithACamera they did its all good ;)
God! This is so good! I literally haven't stopped listening to it for FIVE DAYS
Coolest
House party
Ever
Anyone seen Jonah Hill's "Mid90s" trailer? This would be a perfect song for it.
lol i cannot stop staring at his chest hair
1996 was the year after I graduate from High School...dam I'm getting old.
I have a question : can someone tell me. Bands that make a similar style of music like the wombats ? Im on the search for new music to listen :)
Hey, maybe Keane. They have a lot of good stuff. :)
Alex Kyriazis the griswolds are coolo as well
Check out The Kooks. They're very similar.
Panic at the disco?
Da Drizzle Imagine Dragons, Arctic Monkeys, and Fun. These guys are my go-to indie/alternative artists.
And I'm growing up now, what will I tell my grandkids about my "good ol' teenage years"?
I'm just a random idiot.
why didn't i find you earlier?
The nostalgia is strong. I was 12 in 1996 and it was so boss
so was the lead singer :)
Born in 1993, so I don't remember much. Still remember the late ninties though, I really miss them. Awesome cartoons, awesome music...
hey guys, if you like this song you may well like my cover of Cough Syrup by Young the Giants. Give it a view and tell me what you think
im not Vegan, but please dont spam
PLOT TWIST: They're all drinking vodka.
Can't stop listening
I was born in 1996. Obviously this song is about me.
